WASHINGTON, February 3.-The re-

to the Senate resolution calling for in

the youths among these Indians between

numbering forty-two, have been trans.

THE LEGlsLATURE.
SENATE.


SACRAMENTO, February 3.-The Sem
ate met at IL o'clock, the first matter
taken up being Bowers bill TO repeal
Sec. l422 of the Civil Code relating to
riparian rights. Bowers made an argu
ment in favor OF the passage of the meas
ure. He said tho entire delegation OF
both parties from Southern California
was elected because it was understood
that every man of them would favor the
repeal of Sec. 1922. He believed the
presence of the Democratic mejority in
the Legislature was due solely to the
position of the party on this question
and he warned the Democrats that If
they permitted the session TO end with
out taking action, their banners next
year would be trailing in the dust
Bowers then went on to show the effect
of riparianism on the agricultural inter-
ests of the State, concluding by arg uing
that the repeal of Sec l422 would be
the entering wedge to the destruction of
this doctrine.
In the Senate this afternoon, on mo.
ton of White, the bill allowing Los An
geies county two additional Superior
Judges, was taken up aud passed. This
is the first bill that has finally passed
both Houses. It will be transmitted to
the Governor Immediately.
Lifts bill, appropriating S25, 900 for
contingent expenses of the Senate, was
finally passed.
The consideration OF the bill is to re.
peal Section 1922 of the Civil Code was
resumed. White, of Los Angeles, made
a long, legal argument in favor of its
passage. He said he was not silly
enough to think that the law, as declared
by the Supreme Court, could be upset
by legislative enactment. As this repeal
took from no man his rights, therefore,
he was in favor of passing the bill.
McKinstry's decision he considered one
Of the ablest ever emanating from the Su-
preme Court as the law then stood, but
he was in favor of changing the law for
the future. He quoted from the Demo.
cratic platform to show that a majority
of the Senators had been pledged to re.
peal this section.
Conkin opposed the Dill on the
ground that the section was in harmony
with the constitution and laws and he
could not see why they desired to re.
peal it unless it gave them something.
L2ngford opposed the passage of the
bill and Goucher favored it.
Clunie said the people of his district
wanted irrigation but not at the ex-
pense of any class. He was in favor OF
the appointment of a commission to in.
quire into the subject and report some
feasible method of settling the question.
The bill, by consent, was read the Sec
ond time and its further discussion post.

AN EXTRA SESSION.
Talk of Calling O.Ae On the Rev
enUe Blll.

WASHINGTON, February SIT is the
general impression in the House that all
efforts to harmonizs upon revenue bill
this session will fail, and that no meas.
ure whatever will pass through the
House. The movements of the Randall
men will 60 on until checked by some
action of the House, but whether that
will lead to any legislation is doubted.
What it is expected to result in by, some
of those most interested in the question
is an extra session OF Congress. A very
well informed tariff reformer said he ex-
pected an extra session to be called to
meet in October. Other members ex.
pressed the same opinion. Meanwhile
it is expected that the surplus now in
the treasury will be greatly reduced by
calls of bonds that may be redeemed
and by payments on the Mexican and
Three MOI tbs Service pension bills. 1t
ia believed that no estimate anywhere
approaching the amount of these pen.
sions has yet been made. The talk of
an extra session, however, is not mot
with favorable response at the White
House.

TEE SWEET WINE BILL.
The Eastern Wine Makers Will
OppOse IL.

WASHINGTON, February 3.--The con.
ference on the Sweet Wine bill had a
meeting yesterday to consider the meas
ure. 1t was at once developed that
Senator Harris was opposed to the sweet
wine provision On the ground that it
gave tho California sweet wine makers
an advantage of ninety cents a gallon
over eastern sweet wine makers. Grape
spirits cannot be distilled from the offal
Of eastern grapes after the juice has
been extracted, because of the light
quantity of saccharine matter it carries.
Sweet wine made in the east must be
fortified with neutral spirits, and the
internal tax would remain on these.
Eastern men will agree to the Sweet
Wine bill if it is amended to permit the
use of any kind of spirits to fortify
wines. Otherwise they will oppose it.
The conference, after discussing the
matter. adjourned without calling vote
on the measure. Another meeting will
be held in few days.

limited rate $Sl, or $l.l5 higher than
the Atlantic and Pacific rate. To Mis-.
souri, river points the competing lines
make the same rate and the rates are
identical to Chicago. The advance
made by the Southern Pacific is attrib-
uted to the new scale of pro-rating in
the East. The Southern Pacific has ad-
vanced the Boston rate, first.class lin
tied, to $83 from the old rate of $50. 35.
